Abstract
Acromioclavicular joint dislocation has been one of the difficult conditions to be treated operatively. No other joint in the human body is treated in many ways as the Acromioclavicular joint. Eight patients with isolated Type 3 Rockwood's Acromioclavicular joint dislocation were selected and managed with either modified Phemister technique or Bosworth technique. The aim of the study is to analyse and compare the functional outcome of the shoulder in patients with Type 3 Rockwood's Acromioclavicular joint dislocation managed by Modified Phemister technique or Bosworth technique using UCLA score.
